Chapter 99 - Chapter 99, The Outbreak of Strange Flames

"Repeat! All elders, please proceed to the Heaven Burning Qi Refining Tower immediately!"

Hearing this shout, Xiao Li quickly understood what was happening.

"Xian'er, stay here and don't wander off. I'm going out to take a look."

"Okay."

Xiao Li arrived at the Heaven Burning Qi Refining Tower immediately. All the elders, including Su Qian, had already gathered.

From the massive tower body, waves of invisible heat rolled out, making anyone approaching feel a fiery dryness in their heart.

"All students, please evacuate the Heaven Burning Qi Refining Tower immediately!"

"All students, please evacuate the Heaven Burning Qi Refining Tower immediately!"

Su Qian's calm voice echoed throughout the entire Inner Academy.

Large numbers of students rushed out of the tower.

"Elder Xiao, let us join forces to seal and suppress it. You go into the tower and see if there are any other students who haven't made it out in time!"

Su Qian said to Xiao Li.

Only elders with certain qualifications in their Inner Academy knew the sealing technique used to suppress the Heaven Burning Qi Refining Tower.

Xiao Li had only recently joined the Inner Academy, so he naturally didn't know the Inner Academy's sealing technique.

"Okay."

Xiao Li went against the flow of people, heading deeper into the Heaven Burning Qi Refining Tower.

With his powerful soul strength, a quick sweep allowed him to know if anyone was on that floor.

Basically, students on every floor had already run out.

Even if they hadn't heard the shouts outside, they had felt the waves of unrest and heat coming from deep within the tower's base.

"The first floor is empty, the second floor is also empty."

"The third floor, the fourth floor…"

Xiao Li's soul strength continued to explore deeper towards the base of the tower.

As he passed the sixth floor, his soul strength paused.

"There's still someone on the sixth floor?"

He quickly descended to the sixth floor… The sixth floor.

This was a place only accessible to those who had reached Six-Star Dou Ling.

Han Yue had been cultivating here for several days. She had originally planned to use the fallen heart flame of the sixth floor to cultivate diligently for a period, aiming to break through to Seven-Star Dou Ling.

However, not long after she arrived on the sixth floor today, she encountered the riot of the fallen heart flame.

"Such a powerful aura!"

Han Yue quickly emerged from her cultivation room, only to see a giant invisible fire python staring at her.

"What… is this?"

The invisible fire python pierced through from below, as if it had no physical form.

But its wild aura and eyes like a fire demon sent shivers down Han Yue's spine.

An invisible pressure like a mountain bore down on her, leaving her unable to move.

"Roar!"

The fire python let out a furious roar, opening its gaping maw and lunging at Han Yue!

In this moment of life-or-death crisis, Han Yue did not panic; instead, she calmed down.

She knew there was no escaping, and only a desperate struggle offered a slim chance of survival!

So, Han Yue gritted her silver teeth, gathered an icy chill in her palm, and struck out at the fire python before her.

Bang!

But the disparity in their strength was too great. This strike failed to stop the fire python. Instead, Han Yue herself was sent flying backward by the fire python, crashing heavily against the wall behind her.

Cough!

A trace of fresh red blood spilled from the corner of her mouth as her internal qi and blood churned.

Roar!

The fire python lunged again, and despair appeared in Han Yue's eyes.

At this critical moment, a figure suddenly appeared before her, waving a large hand and shattering the fire python into pieces.

"Are you alright?"

Xiao Li turned around, a warm and gentle smile on his handsome face.

"Elder Xiao?" Han Yue was startled.

"It's too dangerous here. Let's leave first. Can you stand up?"

Han Yue nodded, struggling to stand, but with just a slight movement, a sharp pain shot through her chest.

That last strike had probably broken one of her ribs.

Seeing that she couldn't stand, Xiao Li didn't waste words, bending down to pick up the Inner Academy's most beautiful woman.

"Elder… Elder Xiao!"

Han Yue's face paled in surprise. Before she could refuse, her delicate body fell into a warm embrace.

She was a clean freak and generally resistant to men.

But now, being held by Xiao Li, she didn't feel the slightest discomfort.

Instead, inhaling his reassuring masculine scent made her heart beat uncontrollably faster.

So, she meekly allowed Xiao Li to carry her out of the Heaven Burning Qi Refining Tower.

Outside the tower.

Su Qian and the others had already joined forces to activate the seal, completely suppressing the rioting fallen heart flame.

"Where's your dorm? I'll take you back," Xiao Li asked, looking down at the woman in his arms.

"No… no need. I can go back by myself," Han Yue replied, blushing and quickly shaking her head, then asked Xiao Li to put her down.

Although she didn't dislike Xiao Li.

But to be seen by everyone in public, being carried back by a man, would be too embarrassing.

Xiao Li respected her wishes. After putting her down, he also took out a pill for her.

"This is a Bone Regeneration Pill. Taking it can heal your internal injuries."

Han Yue was flattered, her cheeks flushed: "Thank you, Elder Xiao!"

"You're welcome."

…The riot of the fallen heart flame had been suppressed. It could only be said that it was a close call.

This was originally just a simple riot, not the fallen heart flame truly trying to break through the seal.

However, this also gave Xiao Li a hint about the timing.

The next riot would be when the fallen heart flame truly intended to break through the seal.

At that time, it would be the real moment to subdue the fallen heart flame.

"The plan is about to begin," Xiao Li murmured softly, looking at the Heaven Burning Qi Refining Tower, which had returned to calm… At the same time.

Black-Corner Region, Feng City.

In a dim room, Medicine Emperor Han Feng was meditating with his eyes closed.

Suddenly, a surging aura from the unknown made him open his eyes, a sea heart flame flashing in them.

"This aura… a Heavenly Flame?!"

He came to the window, looking in the direction from which the Heavenly Flame aura came.

"This direction… is it Jia Nan Academy? So that's it, they actually hid such a good thing."

Han Feng's eyes showed a fervent look, and the sea heart flame within him also began to stir restlessly.

"I've been searching for a second Heavenly Flame for too long… Finally."

"It seems my Fen Jue is finally going to be put to use!"

Back then, he came to the Black-Corner Region because he was afraid Venerable Feng would uncover the truth of him assassinating his master.

At the same time, he had received some information, rumors that there was a Heavenly Flame in the Black-Corner Region, which was why he came.

As a result, after all these years, he had never found a second type of Heavenly Flame, and he thought the rumors were false.

Now it seemed that there was indeed a Heavenly Flame in the Black-Corner Region.

It was just that this Heavenly Flame had been kept strictly hidden by Jia Nan Academy, without revealing any information.

This Heavenly Flame riot finally allowed him to detect it.

Although the Heavenly Flame was in the hands of Jia Nan Academy, to obtain it, he would have to clash with Jia Nan Academy.

But for the Heavenly Flame, he didn't care!

Then, he turned and left the room, came outside, and with a wave of his hand,

"Someone, please go invite the Two Elders of Gold and Silver for a chat!"

"Yes!"
